SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: FAS/Cooperator Market

Development Program.

OMB Number: 0551–0026.

Expiration Date of Approval:

December 31, 1998.

Type of Request: Extension and

revision of a currently approved

information collection.

Abstract: The primary objective of the

Foreign Market Development Program is

to develop, maintain and expand longterm export markets for U.S. agricultural

products. Created over 40 years ago, the

program is a cooperative effort between

FAS and non-profit agricultural trade

organizations (called ‘‘Cooperators’’).

The FAS currently provides cost share

assistance for market development to

approximately 30 Cooperators working

in more than 100 countries.

Prior to initiating program activities,

each Cooperator must submit a detailed

application to FAS which includes an

assessment of overseas market potential;

marketing strategy, goals and market

development activities; estimated

budgets; and performance

measurements. Prior years’ plans often

dictate the content of current year plans

because many activities are

continuations of previous activities.

Each Cooperator is also responsible for

submitting: (1) reimbursement claims

for eligible costs incurred, (2) an end-ofyear contribution report, (3) travel

reports, and (4) progress reports/

evaluation studies. Cooperators must

maintain records on all information

submitted to FAS. The information

collection is used by FAS to manage,

plan, evaluate and account for

Government resources. The reports and

records are required to ensure the

proper and judicious use of public

funds.

Estimate of Burden: Public reporting

burden for this collection of information

is estimated to average 20 hours per

response.

Respondents: Non-profit trade

organizations.

Estimated Number of Respondents:

30.

Estimated Number of Responses per

Respondent: 73.

Estimated Total Annual Burden on

Respondents: 43,800 hours.

Requests for Comments: Send

comments regarding the accuracy of the

burden estimate, ways to minimize the

burden, including through the use of

automated collection techniques or

other forms of information technology,

or any other aspect of this collection of

information, to: Kent D. Sisson,
